  1. It is a business deal. The permanent 8 would be the ones whose presence makes the deal worth what it is. 10 years of bad Michigan or bad Texas football draws more eyeballs than do 10 years of success at NMSU. If you want Notre Dame, Michigan, USC, and Texas to volunteer to be subject to relegation, you may not be 100% rational.

    As usual, protect the ball. Here, an incompletion or throwaway is better than a risky throw in almost every situation. Go after them. Make them have to pass. Put the pressure on them to come up with points. Don’t try so hard to be safe you leave them with striking distance with a punt return and a busted coverage. Something like Michigan, but with more points

    Yes. Quinn showed us that he gets this now, I think.

  3. This is a big deal. No NLI. No signing day. B10 and SEC will be able to keep over 3000 CFB players on scholarship between them. Texas better have a lot of brain power and manpower allocated to recruiting 24/7/365, and that includes recruiting the guys already in orange.

    Iowa's Leshon Williams, Kaleb Brown to enter transfer portal

    Max Olson, ESPN Staff Writer    Oct 7, 2024

    Iowa running back Leshon Williams and wide receiver Kaleb Brown are leaving the program and entering the transfer portal, the school confirmed Monday.

    Williams ranked sixth in the Big Ten in rushing yards in 2023 with 821 yards and scored two touchdowns for the Hawkeyes (3-2). He missed time in fall camp due to injury and did not play in the last two games after rushing for 21 yards on 11 carries in three games.

    Kaleb Johnson has emerged as Iowa's top running back this season and ranks second in FBS in rushing with 771 yards and 10 touchdowns. The junior began the season with four consecutive 100-yard performances, including a career-high 206 yards and three touchdowns in a win over Minnesota.

    Williams played in 33 games over his four seasons with the Hawkeyes and produced 1,496 yards from scrimmage and four scores. The fifth-year senior will have one more season of eligibility in 2025.

    Iowa said Brown also will enter the transfer portal after he announced that he would redshirt and sit out the rest of the season. The former Ohio State transfer and top-100 recruit was the Hawkeyes' third-leading receiver in 2023 with 215 yards and a touchdown on 22 receptions but has played sparingly in three games this season, recording one catch for 18 yards.

     

    Good news for Washington, I guess.

  5. I have been watching games through the Hulu app on my AppleTV connected to an actual TV. I have signed up for a subscription to YTTV. I am able to see the expected channels on my laptop when I log in to YouTube. When I launch the YouTube app (even after re-loading it) on either the AppleTV or directly on the TV, I do not see YouTube TV as a choice in my app. I have double-checked that I am logged in with the same gmail account as on the laptop. I would love help troubleshooting this, please.

    Why would a bad Florida team, running a gauntlet and on the road in a sandwich game between actual rivals for them, be a trap opponent for Texas? I’ve seen this mentioned all offseason and it just doesn’t pass the smell test. Anything can happen, but that doesn’t spell “trap game” by the definition of the term. 

    Agree. The other post-UGA opponents have sleepers or bye ahead of us, but Florida is not going to focus too much extra on us.

    Missouri shouldn’t be ranked. Iowa State is way too fucking high. So is Miami. And Clemson. I’d bump up Boise State.

    This is a year of chaos . Illinois looks legit. 

    Today's polls are going to be a crapshoot with all of yesterday's losses. 

    Bama/Georgia/tenn losses 

    Who has played anyone if we haven't?

    OSU best win is what Iowa ? 

    Oregon best win is fucking Boise

    Miami is a joke

    Penn State is on the clock but has a sweet schedule 

    BYU , Iowa State lol 

    Pretty much everyone else has lost already 

     

    Edit - I think big and sec have really made scheduling choices to maximize overall playoff potential leading to a lot of weirdness  

    As usual by October, it has become clear that there are not ten teams deserving of being in the top ten, nor 25 worthy of being in the top 25.

    Again to each their own. I’d live anywhere but Houston if I didn’t have to live here for work. 

    If your work causes you to live in your last place choice of city, perhaps you'd be happier in a different job.

    Is this the Arthrex procedure?  Hadn’t noted that - I recall Rudy Gay did pretty well recently but cannot recall a football player (needing a RB-type of explosive power) with the same procedure and/or recovery

    Those stats are not procedure-, implant-, sport-, or position- specific. They are worst for basketball overall though.

    EDIT Limitations on explosive power are neuromuscular. The tendon either ruptures or doesn't. Sometimes the muscle rehab doesn't go well, sometimes psych factors limit explosive power. In terms of the repair limiting it, either the tendon re-ruptures or it doesn't.
